Sorry, will edit and upload the prev two chaps in a while.
Vaughn stood there with his clenched fist. The little girl who witnessed the scene was surprised, holding her screams as she saw them writhe in pain.
"Wait, aren't they Mchanjey's favorite guards who linger around him all the time?"
"Oh no, what has he done?"
"Nah, he did the right thing. I have seen them causing bigger problems with Lia lately. Glad that someone took care of them."
"But won't he face the consequences?"
The whispers reached Vaughn, but he didn't mind them. His focus was on the three men who were on the ground, one of them crouching while the other two barely even conscious.
With long strides, Vaughn walked towards them.
"You talk big for someone who fell like a little bug."
"You-"
"You bastard! Just you wait- Cough!"
"The moment Master Mchanjey hears this, you are so dead!" the one who was crouching screamed his heart out.
"Pfft, I will see that later… for now…" He turned behind, staring at the little girl.
"Want to hit?"
Hearing his words again, the little girl clenched her fist and with a gaze of determination, walked straight towards him.
"I can?" She asked for a final confirmation while she stood beside him.
"Yes, you can."
And the moment she got the confirmation, she swung her gentle hands with as much strength she could muster.
Bam- Bam- Bam-
It felt like merely tickles as she hit them.
"Because of you! All because of you!"
"You came and destroyed our peace!" Her screams, however, were louder.
Her pain was evident from how tough the times had been on Lia and the lot.
"Heh, you peasants deserve it! You need to be happy; we haven't enslaved you."
Hearing the little girl's words, his anger kept rising, but he kept it under control. However, after the crouching giant's last words, he snapped.
"This is not enough. Let me do the job," he grabbed the little girl's wrist again, stopping her.
The little girl stood up and walked a step back as Vaughn readied his fists.
"Let me show you what death is like."
BAM!
To the crouching man, the fist seemed to come in slow motion. It was as if he could dodge, but his body failed to do so.
The punch hit him straight in his abdomen, the same area where the previous punch had landed. This time, the shockwave almost ripped his internals and crushed everything inside!
Cough!
A large chunk of blood escaped his mouth, a mouthful of it exiting and falling on the ground.
'This is not enough!', Vaughn had planned on doing much more.
He had yet to regain his strength. But the blows that he gave were surely the attacks thanks to his artifacts and items he bought.
Bam- Bam- Bam!
Each attack carried a shockwave that blew past the man, spreading all over his body. Heck, the people who stood way away could feel the impact.
"N-no-"
"ARGH!", and with that, the man finally fell unconscious.
He wouldn't survive much longer since his liver and kidneys had exploded due to the attack.
Changing the target, he looked at the rest who tried to pull themselves and crawl away.
"Your turn."
They had created a distance of five meters between them which Vaughn covered effortlessly.
In an instant, he was beside them, his eyes glowing faintly.
"Turn away.", he said lowly, as if giving a warning to the little girl to close her eyes, which she did.
As for other people who stood by, a few of them with weak hearts did the same. As for others who failed to hear him or remained adamant, they witnessed one of the goreome deaths with their very eyes!
Vaughn's fist glowed momentarily right after which he threw just 2 punches - one for each.
This time, the target was not the abdomen but their faces.
Little did he know what would happen if he changed the target.
Being a small round sphere and confined bones, the head could barely transmit the strong shockwaves like the fat covered abdomen.
Moreover, with increased rage, Vaughn forgot to hold back.
BAM!
BAM!
Two attacks, right at the nose and the next thing Vaughn knew was a splash of blood - a fountain erupting from their headless bodies.
The punch caused their heads to explode, the eyeballs popping out and falling at the side. The teeth were broken and scattered and the tongue remained freely on the ground in the pool of the blood.
"Kyaaa!" About seven in the crowd of ten ran away after seeing what had happened. Their legs didn't stop until they had distanced themselves enough.
Huff huff...
"What did I just..." Vaughn was utterly baffled by what had happened.
In front of him now remained two headless bodies from whom blood kept oozing out. Two separate puddles of blood had already formed which joined to form a pool a few seconds later.
And Vaughn, he remained in that pool, his feet and knees being stained with blood. His hands were already in that state way earlier.
His vision was a little bit blurry as he had openly killed two people right now.
[Congratulations.]
[You have killed 3 humans.]
[Gaining XP.]
*Ding*
[Congratulations, Vaughn!]
[You have leveled up: Lv.9]
Although the men were giants and seemed strong, apparently they didn't provide much experience. Looks like everything was for a show.
However, others didn't know about this.
The crowd that witnessed this gasped in awe as the three men died.
"Wait, he too?" Vaughn wasn't sure if he had killed the first person whom he had punched in the abdomen.
But with the notice, he was now aware of what he had done.
Again, the sensation of vomiting resurged as he thought about it, but this time it was weaker than the previous. He controlled it better.
He composed himself and stood back up. He looked to the left and right with a squinted gaze, staring at the people who came gathering anew and those who wanted to flee but their legs betrayed them.
"If you open your mouth, then you all are so dead," Vaughn said this with a deadly look in his eyes.
His killing intent was evident, and his eyes, which seemed bloodthirsty, almost caused five of them to soil themselves.
"W-we," one of them tried to utter, but as Vaughn turned his gaze to the thirty-year-old man, he fell down to the ground abruptly.
"We won't say anything!" one of the men, seeing the situation, stepped forward.
While his forehead was covered in sweat, he calmly said what Vaughn had expected to hear.
"If you get it, then scram!"
And with just that, all those who had gathered ran for their lives, promising themselves never to come even a single step closer to Lia's house or ever mess with them even by mistake! Heck, not even in their wildest dreams would they make it happen.
With their disappearance, Vaughn calmed his gaze. He then breathed heavily once or twice and decided to turn back.
He wondered, what could the girl be thinking? How would she react? What would she say?
All these things lingered in his mind, but after turning back, he found nothing but a cute little girl, covering both her ears and closing her eyes tightly.
"She-"
*Ding*
[Rest assured, all this time, she didn't open her eyes nor did she hear anything.]
Vaughn, hearing this from the system, smirked.
"But if she opens her eyes, she would end up with this horrific scene..."
"Say, could you store all the dead bodies and the blood in the inventory? Is this possible?"
[Of course, it is! Would you like to do that?]
"Yes, please."
And with the command, the system almost instantly stored the bodies away in the inventory. The blood that had spilled vanished similarly.
It was as if nothing had happened at all.
Vaughn, confirmed by the undoing of the things thanks to the system, walked closer and patted the girl's head.
Upon doing so, the girl opened her eyes, staring at Vaughn standing scathed in front of her.
She then removed her hands from her ears and asked, "What about them?"
Of course, she peeked by bending her head to the side as the three men didn't seem to be present at the place.
Furthermore, she had witnessed Vaughn hitting the crouching man who fell to the ground, she had questions regarding them too!
But Vaughn, with a gentle smile, said, "A hero saved the day. Don't worry, they won't come and bother you anymore."
"What?" The girl was surprised to hear this from Vaughn. A drop of tear left her eyes upon this news which was hardly believable to her.
"T-thank y-"
"Ah ah. Save the thanks for later. It's time to save your brother, so just wait patiently, I'll be back."
And without any more interaction, Vaughn left the scene to fulfill the main task of finishing his mission - saving her brother and helping her ultimately.
